best part..
order the neutrik XX series. You dont need to cut them as the threaded end is on the chock, not the metal housing.
w/those, you only need to drill a hole for the cable to enter (or cut a section out ...either way).
much easier to work with. and the finished product is a little tighter looking.
they do stick out about 1/4" more than the standard neutrik, but much, much less work.
